Marital Status & Common-Law Declarations –
For Immigration, Legal & Government Use
When proof of relationship status is required by immigration authorities, legal institutions, or government bodies, a notarized statutory declaration can make all the difference. Notarize Vaughan helps you get it done legally, quickly, and 100% valid for IRCC and official use.
What Is a Marital Status or Common-Law Declaration?
A marital status declaration is a written, sworn statement confirming whether you are married, divorced, widowed, or legally single.
A common-law declaration confirms that you are living in a conjugal relationship with your partner — often used to prove eligibility for immigration programs or benefits when you’re not legally married.
These declarations are especially critical for:
- Spousal sponsorship or common-law sponsorship (IRCC)
- Legal or court filings
- Applications for social benefits or financial aid
- Name or relationship verifications on travel or health documents
Why Does It Need to Be Notarized?
A statutory declaration of marital or common-law status must be signed under oath (or solemn affirmation) in front of an authorized official, such as a notary public or commissioner.
Notarization:
- Confirms your legal identity
- Verifies you understand the content and legal implications
- Makes the declaration admissible to IRCC, courts, or Service Canada
- Helps prevent fraud and misrepresentation
Common Use Cases
